We support young children particularly in small villages in the IDP areas of Burma, but also for the very poor refugees in Mizoram, and in our partnership with Children on the Edge for the Rohingyas...

How you can help

We are looking for a volunteer to help us with our program in Mizoram State, India. With the help of several Chin refugees, we provide funds to support education at all levels from primary school through university. This program is valuable because it is the only non-religious program supporting education for Chin refugees in the area. We spend about $40,000 a year on this work.

From our very beginning in 1997, we at BREF realized that our primary aid would be monetary support to refugees for their education. As such we realized our primary responsibility to our donors was: 1.) to direct as much of their money as possible to the people in need, rather than to ourselves; and 2.) to choose our projects and scholarship as wisely as we could, and to constantly monitor them to ensure good results.
